Aion YouTube Advanced: Hub & Suite

Aion YouTube Advanced: Hub & Suite is a comprehensive toolkit designed to customize, enhance, and control the YouTube experience from a single hub. It brings visual layers, professional audio processing, playback and quality controls, SponsorBlock tools, themes, player customization, privacy controls, data inspection, automation, custom modules, custom effects, and advanced workflow tools together in one extension. Its internal capability inventory covers more than 100 major capabilities across visual, audio, video, visibility, sponsor, privacy, appearance, data, and platform layers. Quick controls are available from the popup, while detailed settings are managed through Aion Studio. Settings are persistent, modules can be enabled or disabled independently, global system state is separated from tab-scoped state, and the active state can continue when the video changes within the same YouTube tab. VISUAL MEDIA, BACKGROUND, AND PLACEMENT • Use local images, animated GIFs, and videos. • Import PNG, JPEG, WebP, and GIF files. • Use MP4, WebM, and Ogg video sources as visual layers. • Manage built-in media, uploads, and favorites as separate sources. • Favorites system and media library. • Create slideshows from built-in media, uploads, favorites, or mixed sources. • Slideshow transitions and automatic rotation. • Media placement editor with position, width, height, scale, and opacity controls. • Brightness, contrast, saturation, and tint controls. • Save media and placement settings inside profiles. DYNAMIC AMBIENT AND AURA SYSTEM Aion can sample colors from the active video and build a dynamic background around YouTube, or operate with manually selected colors. • Dominant and dual-palette generation from video. • Manual color mode and favorite-color management. • Strength, blur, saturation, brightness, spread, smoothing, and transition controls. • Optional linking between video colors and the tint layer. • Dark-scene and bright-scene protection thresholds. • Letterbox exclusion. • Pause ambient processing when the video is paused or the tab is hidden. • Quality, Balanced, and Efficient performance behavior. • Beat-based animation with speed, depth, and audio sensitivity. • Bass, mid, and treble response. • Four-direction aura controls around the player. • Separate aura, blur, spread, and motion parameters for recommended-video cards. • Independent source reflection, effect reflection, and tint reflection controls. 30 BUILT-IN ATMOSPHERE EFFECTS The built-in Effects Engine includes Snow, Rain, Smoke, Bubbles, Bokeh, Fireflies, Film Grain, Dust, Light Leaks, Embers, Stars, Mist, Drizzle, Leaves, Ash, Aurora, Light Rays, Meteor Shower, Petals, Confetti, Prismatic Light, Water Caustics, Constellation, Neon Grid, Chromatic Orbs, Silk Waves, Electric Arcs, Frost Crystals, Heat Shimmer, and Fire Ribbons. Effects can expose density, scale, opacity, softness, wind, streak, turbulence, glow, warmth, twinkle, rotation, and effect-specific controls, and can respond to video and audio signals. CUSTOM EFFECTS The Custom Effects platform allows you to create and run your own effect definitions inside Aion. Custom effects can use particles, glow, waves, rays, grain, vignette, gradient, blur-field, trail, ring, grid, sprite, mask, distortion, and other supported render structures. Effect parameters can react to audio.bass, audio.mid, audio.treble, audio.rms, audio.peak, video.motion, video.luminance, video.sceneCut, playback.time, playback.progress, and video palette inputs, enabling dynamic effects that react to the content being played instead of acting as static overlays.
